Domineering Lover novel Chapter 1129

As she had expected, Dustin Gardner showed great "favor" to her.

Her room was still the worst one on the second floor.

"Aleigha, this is your room."

Dominic pushed open the door and went still for a few seconds. The room was cold and dusty, stuffed with all kinds of things.

"Uncle, here?"

Aleigha's voice was ironic.

"Wait a minute. I'll have it cleaned," Dominic said in a hurry.

"Oh, don't bother," Aleigha stopped him as he turned to find a servant.

"I will live in a hotel for a time being. If Adrian comes, tell him I don't live here."

She sounded airy.

Only then did it occur to Dominic that she was Adrian's fiance, which made him much respectful immediately.

"That will be very thoughtless of me to let you live outside. I'll arrange another room for you," Dominic said.

"What's wrong with this room?"

A sharp voice sounded from behind them.

The very same voice that had haunted Aleigha even in her dreams.

Aleigha snapped her head back with furrowed brows and saw Lainey Cook standing in the hall with a straight face.

"Aleigha, this is your mother."

Mother? Her mother had passed away three years ago and her father hadn't even come to her funeral.

Lainey was the culprit of her mother's tragic life.

She was also the one who had trespassed on her trust and threatened her with Adrian.

"Mother," Aleigha greeted her in a monotonous tone.

"Oh, I can't afford that. You're the eldest daughter of the family and Adrian's fiance while I'm just a humble housewife," Lainey said acidly.

Lainey knew what had happened in the banquet and had seen that Adrian was very protective of her.

Aleigha should have been a bumpkin after living in the countryside for so many years, but she actually had looked like a noble lady.

Lainey had been very competitive her whole life and planned to marry her daughter to the Xiao family.

However, the Xiao family wouldn't take any other girl of the Gardner family except Aleigha, which left Dustin no choice but to bring her back.

Lainey couldn't hate Aleigha and her mother more. Without them, she wouldn't have been called the other woman for so many years.

"It's my honor to have you as my mother," Aleigha said politely.

She needed to play nice now. Those people were ostensibly polite to her merely for Adrian's sake.
